surgeries

This was last March. I can't believe that this boy in the picture is my boy! He looks so different! (Julius)

~~~~~~

His brother Pauly is having surgery here in our city, next month.

~~~~~~~~~~

Julius has to travel to a city 60 miles away for his surgery because he needs a pediatric specialist. Tom and Julius will go there alone. The rest of us will be here. It will be hard. We've done it before with another child- but the separation is always hard.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When you adopt you always wonder what the unkowns will be. These surgeries were not a surprise to us, but they were unknown. Julius' need for pediatric specialty care was a surprise. We had hoped both boys could get their medical care locally. I know I shouldn't worry. But he's so little and to have him so far away. It will be hard.
